Funding Directory

The 22nd edition of the Herefordshire Funding Directory is available for download in the resource box below. It lists the main funding opportunities that may be available to those living and working in Herefordshire. The Directory helps locate appropriate funding for a particular project and, where possible, gives details of local contacts. It is produced by the Project Development Team at Herefordshire Council. As well as information on funding, it also has contacts for advice and support from local organisations.

The types of funds available have been categorised under different headings for business and community and voluntary organisations.

Where appropriate, sub-sections identify specific areas of funding. Where Partnership support is required to access funding, it is important to show how your project helps to achieve the aims of the Herefordshire Plan, which is the community strategy for Herefordshire. For information on Partnership Groups which may be appropriate to your project, please contact the Herefordshire Partnership Support Team on 01432-261792, or email hfdspartnership@herefordshire.gov.uk.

Please note that although an index is not provided, there is a contents page and the funding sources are in alphabetical order within each heading.

We hope you find the Directory useful and we would like to thank all the organisations which have provided information, and colleagues at Herefordshire Council for their involvement in the preparation of the Directory.

Whilst every care has been taken to ensure the information in this Directory is accurate, much of the information published is based on details supplied by other organisations. In addition, funding opportunities do vary and may end without notice. Herefordshire Council cannot accept any liability for any errors or omissions, or any consequences arising from them. The contacts given in the first section should be able to help with any queries you may have.

For this edition, we have marked new funders with the designation "NEW!!!!" to enable them to be identified more easily. We hope that you will be able to use the funders, both new and old, to support your projects in Herefordshire.

The Directory is updated regularly. To help us keep it accurate, you can tell us if anything is wrong or needs updating by contacting us at the address below. You can also obtain a copy of the Herefordshire Plan from this address.
